Loosely sketched from an old photograph I found in a bag my mom sent me labeled "Photos of people you don't know" and then Exacto-knifed out of the paper. My first attempt at papercutting AKA scherenschnitte. I'm completely inspired by this lady's work: http://madebyjulene.com/

I would love to be able to make things like she does someday. I'll keep at it. I need to get some better tools and some patterns for good practice. It is tedious work, but so fun to see it coming together.

This guy kind of looks like he's on fire. I didn't notice that until just now. Ah well. Sometimes you just light on fire I guess.
